The Tennessee Volunteers took another big step forward towards locking down in-state Class of 2016 talent on Friday landing 3-star Memphis linebacker Timothy Hart.

Hart (6-1, 215) had a productive junior season coming up with 77 solo tackles, 10 tackles for a loss, three sacks, an interception, and four quarterback hurries.

College recruiters took notice of the Memphis University talent with 10 FBS programs extending offers. LSU, Missouri, Ole Miss, Memphis, Cal, Indiana and Illinois were among the schools looking to bring Hart to campus in 2016.
